Details: Product description full length studio album from former Further Seems Forever singer. Amazon.ca Of all the downtrodden intellectuals turning skate-punk into emo, Dashboard Confessional's Christopher Carrabbas is by far the most bruised. With just an acoustic guitar and some choice words, the Ben Folds sound-alike turns the concept of the love song on its head with The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most's torrent of poetic abuse aimed at girls who've taken advantage of his good nature. From "Saints and Sailors" ("This apartment is starving for an argument/ Anything at all to break the silence") to "The Good Fight" ("I claimed you as my only hope and watched the floor as you retired") to "Screaming Infidelities" ("So kiss me hard because this will be the last time I let you"), Carrabbas is unapologetically bitter. Yet while his love life may be a tragic mess, the pure cathartic joy he derives from putting the ladies in question back in their place--evident from his venomous acoustic attacks--is unmistakable, infectious, and fantastically liberating. Wallowing in self-pity has seldom been so much fun. --Dan Gennoe
